My trich is getting so out of control. It had gotten better, when I started taking lexapro for Postpartum Depression but then, about 1month later, I start pulling and pulling. Now you can see my scalp around my forehead. Its so noticeable and thin in the back tooo. I even get comments on how I am losing my hair. But I dont know wut to say.

I have 4 kids and I cant even afford a wig.

 

Any ideas on how to cover it, without buying a wig since that doesnt fit into my budget with 4 kids?

Honestly, I'm not too sure...I've been pulling from my hairline for about 10 years now...all I've ever needed to do before to cover where I pull is just part my hair a different way every once in awhile..but now since I got prego and had a baby, my pulling has been soooo much worse!!!  I'm starting to get really sad about it...

In this pic you can see what I'm talkin bout..pulling from the hairline..everytime I change my part I start pulling from where I part it...so my hair line is just getting higher and higher! :(

Anyways, sorry for babbling and sorry I can't help you out!  If you think of any good ideas please share!!!
